Stormy Weather

The May Muster Mixer (say that three times fast!) is a challenge to combine the tangles Xplode and Fife into a new tangle. I had a lot of fun with this and did a sort of sampler of ideas. A lot of these patterns feel like I was drawing stitch diagrams...just can't get away from it!


Since Monday was the first Monday of the month, this is a Use My Tangle week at the Weekly Diva Challenge. The Tangle chosen is 'Brella by Bunny Wright. I also got interested in the Zentangle: Stacked and Tangled Facebook group and decided to stack this week's tangles. The Brella tangle sparked an idea of making a weather related tile. It's kind of wishful thinking on my part. It barely rained all winter and we are unlikely to get any more until October!

Tangles Used: Brella, Mssst, Cloudfall,
 Lightning Bolt, Hurakan, Pop Cloud, DL Sunray

  1. I love your Brella tile. Nicely done stacked tangles and great interpretation of Brella. Love the Mssst and Lightning Bolt. We have been fortunate enough to have rain the last few days, so it helps out our water situation a lot here lately. Hope that your tile inspires some storms to come your way. Nice work!
